Gloria is a rocket scientist. Or, rather, an aerospace engineer if you want to be precise, which you do. Gloria is also newly single and trying internet dating for the first time. When meeting new people and the inevitable ‘what do you do?’ question comes up most men seem disappointed with her answer. She senses that many of her dates worry they’re not as smart as she is. But none of them cop to it, they just disappear. But last Tuesday was different. Three sips into her glass of Rosé, she asked her date what he did for a living and he said, ‘I’m a brain surgeon.’ She laughed and said, ‘I’m a rocket scientist.’ ‘No, really, I’m a neurosurgeon,’ he said and handed her his business card. Then she handed him hers. As of last night, neither of their dating profiles could be found online.
